Patriots vs. Buccaneers Predictions, Picks & Odds: NFL Week 10, Sunday 11/9
Don’t look now, but the NFL Week 10 slate may feature what could end up being a Super Bowl preview down on the west coast of Florida. It’s not one that was expected prior to the season, but with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers hosting the New England Patriots, it’s not out of the question. Therefore, we’ve got our best Patriots vs. Buccaneers predictions for Sunday.
Even if that does seem a bit far-fetched for you, you’ll be glad that we added to our Patriots vs. Buccaneers picks with a guaranteed two-part Sleeper Fantasy promo code bonus!
Patriots vs. Buccaneers Predictions for NFL Week 10, Sunday 11/9
With a combined record of 13-4, this truly is a matchup that we could see in February. Neither team lost this past Sunday, but that’s about the most useless way to put it. The Bucs had their bye while the Pats snuck away with a one-point win over the Atlanta Falcons, which you could argue was their worst game of the season.
New England was without Rhamondre Stevenson, who has had a fumbling problem, and they still couldn’t take care of the football. Thankfully for the Pats and their fans, Atlanta missed an extra point to tie the game, allowing them to come away with a 24-23 win. With Tampa being a banged-up team, making Patriots vs. Buccaneers predictions this week is going to be tough.
Having the bye week absolutely helps, but in the same breath, New England has a solid defense to help make up for any turnovers on their end. Regardless, Drake Maye and Baker Mayfield have been among the most intriguing QBs throughout the first half of the season. One of whom is going to need to come through for our Patriots vs. Buccaneers picks!

Patriots vs. Buccaneers Best Bet: Emeka Egbuka Anytime TDÂ (Use His Sleeper Fantasy Card)
As you can see, it’s Baker Mayfield that is the QB that we need to come through for our Patriots vs. Buccaneers predictions. While the bye week certainly helps their overall health as a team, we still know that Mike Evans is on IR and Chris Godwin may never truly be 100% again. So, insert amazing rookie Emeka Egbuka.
Even the Ohio State product suffered a hamstring injury, but never missed a game. That said, we’ll admit that he did not look the same in his one game following that injury. That’s when we saw fellow rookie Tez Johnson make a name for himself as well, but we still love a bounce back from Emeka Egbuka for our Patriots vs. Buccaneers predictions.
He was on the fast track for Offensive Rookie of the Year, and it’s still far from out of reach now. His recent decline in receptions may have you worried, but keep in mind that he’s still had 21 targets over the past two games alone. You may also be worried about our comment earlier regarding the Pats' defense.
However, they are carried by their performances against the run; they allow the fewest rushing yards per game - more than 10 yards per game better than the next-closest team! Meanwhile, they just allowed Atlanta Falcons QB Michael Penix to throw three touchdown passes to Drake London alone!Â
This is a spot for him to look like he did through the first five weeks, making the best bet from our Patriots vs. Buccaneers predictions on Emeka Egbuka anytime TD scorer (add his card to a Sleeper Fantasy lineup).Â
